[X4U] Keyboard language mapping changing "on its own"

[Mark Des Cotes]

Jim,

I had a similar problem once before. Check your System Preferences >  
Keyboard & Mouse and see if "Input Menu" is checked. When it's  
checked you can change keyboard layouts by pressing Command/Space,  
the same keyboard shortcut in Photoshop to get the magnifying glass.  
Uncheck it and your problems should go away.
